Seems like quite a few buttons to have in your spacecraft. WTH would they need that many for? Seems a bit much.

Too bad these CP's weren't translucent and back lit like the Defender Cocktail panels were. Imagine all those buttons lit and half of them blinking. Time to head to the acrylic bending shop.
 
Well, the spacecraft that I 'fly' has over 2500 different commands and most of those take variable arguments. It's a good thing we can send the commands in the form of a script as opposed to 'joysticking' it!

It would be pretty frickin cool to have a backlit AD CP. I'm in for one!

Dude, you need to stop stalling because of that phobia and get that CPO put on. :D
 
Looks like someone needs to order a square broach and get to work. Keep us posted with your progress.

I don't even know what that means. The only broaches I know about are the ones that get gingerly pinned to my lapel. I am wearing my classy sapphire-studded dragonfly today.
 
Did Archer make that CPO? That thing is going to be a nightmare to put on. Can you even roll it over the edges? Isn't his material brittle?
 
I once picked up a missile command that was worked over by a some tweeker.. He added x-mas lights to the control panel and behind the marquee..

I think I took it to CAX one year and sold it after the show. Here is a pic of the control panel..
